rubyfoo

YAY! i AM SENDING A BRASS BAND TO FOLLOW HIS MOVING TRUCK!
1:54 am
jillibus

It's a i09-kilometre stretch, from Modane to Alpe D'Huez, across three mountain passes. He admits it's the craziest thing he's ever done, but it's for InspireHealth.
1:54 am
mrpresident

must be needing money for all the court costs he will be up for ha ha ha ha!!!
1:55 am
mrpresident

and the punitive damages he will be paying me!!
1:55 am
rubyfoo

I will watch for him and the InspireHealth sign
1:55 am
jillibus

HOORAY MRP!!! Good riddance to bad rubbish as they say.
1:55 am
mrpresident

I told the police... if he puts his business up for sale and doesn't get a buyer, I can guarantee you he will set his business of fire and blame ME!!
1:56 am
mrpresident

so lucky he got a buyer
1:56 am
mrpresident

must have sold it for a pittence
1:56 am
mrpresident

jillibus

That sounds sensible
2:00 am
jillibus

He sounds even more horrible that ever
2:00 am
mrpresident

jilli, I knew he was looking to get rid of his business, and I have no doubt in my mind that he set fire to his own crap on his property, blamed me, so he could have an easy out if his business went up in flames
2:03 am
jillibus

Take care, mrp -- glad you have some good news at last -- I must go now...have a good evening and ...*

4:34 am
sprite

oh lol, chaotic dream!
4:34 am
mrpresident

Also, I dreamt that I was living my life from one family house to another in a huge tour bus... that kept getting stuck in mud in exactly the same place... I was aware of the mud each time, but still drove into it!

4:42 am
mrpresident

i am glad in one way we do not have the authority to carry guns or knives or mace or anything like that... against the law...
but sometimes!!!!! ooooooh, a hairspray aerosol bottle is in my bag 24/7
4:44 am
herinfernallady

Hi
4:44 am
mrpresident

well, these people are not worthy of being tagged as any animal, in respect of the animal
4:44 am
mrpresident

hi infern!!
4:44 am
sprite

we aren't allowed guns either, and I think that is ok.
4:44 am
sprite

hi lady :)
4:44 am
herinfernallady

Howdy
4:45 am
mrpresident

perhaps a lighter too... that would help get them out of my face!
4:45 am
herinfernallady

Hi Sprite and Mr pres
4:45 am
mrpresident

but sprite, we have gun killings, drive-bys, hold-ups every single day!! it is just aweful
4:46 am
mrpresident

and innocent people getting killed... what has happened to our lovely country?
4:46 am
sprite

I am glad we don't, but it is happening more often than it used to, alas. Well at least here it is still news. We had an attack on a money wagon yesterday in Amsterdam and it was all over the news.
4:47 am
sprite

hiya lady, how's life today?
4:47 am
herinfernallady

Good back soon as dinner is here
4:47 am
sprite

lol and I am having brunch right now
4:48 am
sprite

please, any clue for the ho6/21? I am blind as a bat.
4:48 am
mrpresident

I am taking my children to my farm.... buying ammunition and teaching them how to handle guns... rifles, pistols and shotguns.... cause I know they will come across them somewhere along the way... Sydney is getting worse, at least we are in a 'safer?' suburb.
I just want them to know how to handle a firearm if they come across one, without hurting anyone
4:49 am
sprite

things are so different where you live. here it would be out of the question. Shooting is only allowed in clubs, and not by minors.
4:50 am
mrpresident

shooting is allowed in clubs and only by children over 12... we have a licenced shooter teaching our children next week
4:50 am
sprite

very nice
4:51 am
mrpresident

they have to dig their own trench-bed, put down their wheatbags and with full eye and ear protection, lay on the ground and shoot at targets
4:51 am
mrpresident

not allowed to stand up with rifles
4:52 am
sprite

that is wise
4:52 am
mrpresident

pistols have to be on a solid platform, with side protection upright
4:52 am
mrpresident

so they can't turn the gun any other way but forward
4:53 am
mrpresident

they can stand for pistol, but is secured by yacht rope so it can't turn or flip
4:53 am
mrpresident

My father has built this for them on the farm
4:54 am
sprite

not bad!
4:54 am
mrpresident

also, NO WAY can they kill any animals
4:55 am
mrpresident

and they have to set up their own targets, build a mound with sand and put up their targets
4:55 am
mrpresident

THAT.... is discipline in gun control
4:56 am
sprite

good for them :)
4:56 am
mrpresident

thanks sprite... some people have a hard opinion on me for teaching my children to handle firearms, but we have the farms, we have to have the firearms
4:57 am
sprite

if there is a good chance your children will have to handle guns at some point, it is only sensible to teach them how to do it safely.
4:57 am
mrpresident

yes, how to disarm them!!
4:58 am
sprite

yes exactly. And where NOT to point
4:58 am
mrpresident

and also to see the terrible damage they can cause... I learnt that growing up when shooting animals was acceptable... it was just awful!! terrible! can never get the images out of my mind
4:59 am
sprite

I can imagine :(
5:00 am
mrpresident

we are going to do a night in the forest... we have licence to cull kangaroos, goats and razorback pigs. But I will not be going out with them.
5:01 am
sprite

I wouldn't do that either. I know it can be necessary, but I would hate to kill an animal. I am a whoosh... I don't even like killing moles in our garden. I grow veggies in huge pots now :)
5:01 am
mrpresident

but, you know what is fun???
5:01 am
sprite

what?
5:03 am
mrpresident

fishing in the river.... riding the quad bikes... bulldozing the noxious trees and putting them into 1 km fire stacks, burning the stacks, marshmallows, sausages on a stick....
5:03 am
mrpresident

running with the emu's and kangaroos!! that is awesome!!
5:03 am
sprite

hehehe yeah that sounds good, apart from the fishing. Unless it is fishing for what you will eat.
5:04 am
mrpresident

no, we have carp in our rivers... we catch them and cut them up for the cat
5:04 am
mrpresident

european carp... killing our rivers
5:04 am
sprite

I can go with fishing and eating, also for the cat. I cannot handle 'sport' fishing. Why torture an animal just for your fun?
5:04 am
mrpresident

do you wanna know how we catch them??? LOL@!
5:05 am
sprite

uh-oh.... yes of course :)
5:06 am
mrpresident

The kids are each given a bow and arrows... they have to 'shoot' the fish and then chase the arrow down the river until the fish gives up.... then pin it on the sand and cut it's backbone
5:06 am
sprite

good for training markmanship, lol
5:07 am
mrpresident

indeed !!
5:07 am
sprite

ok begging here: please a clue for the ho6/21. Last word and I just cannot find it.

Thank you very much, Molly! I am very limited by the curls and lack of any kind of dexterity for styling my own hair.

8:24 am
Riverdance

<-----wish I had curls
8:24 am
MollyL

My girlie-in-law and I are hysterical getting ready to go somewhere. She is busy straightening her hair and I am busy curling mine.
8:24 am
rubyfoo

I always wore my hair medium length and curly, cut it myself. But after I lost it all, husband liked it better when it came back, so I've kept it close-cropped
8:24 am
Riverdance

I have the straightest limpest hair imaginable
8:24 am
car.eeyore

I actually used to chemically straighten my hair...long before the flat irons were born....it was during the preppy era in the 80's and I just wanted to look like all the other prepsters.
8:25 am
car.eeyore

Molly! Girl fun!!!!! Sounds wonderful!
8:25 am
car.eeyore

Some days I love my curls...other days...not so much.
8:25 am
rubyfoo

I didn't realize how curly my (limp) hair was until I once used electric rollers (in the 70's) and had to cut them out because they wouldn't uncurl!
8:25 am
car.eeyore

Oh no!
8:26 am

hey sue! I saw you HOURS ago and you were on your way to a meeting -- hope all is well with you today
3:30 pm
uusue2

doing pretty well, stid - meeting was fine, and I spent quite a bit of time with the kid (he had a counseling appointment some distance away, so it was a drive, and then we had lunch)
3:30 pm
uusue2

we had really good long talks. He is a great kid :-)
3:30 pm
stidmama

(((sue))) good. "great kids" are hard to find! (after my own two shining examples, of course...)
3:32 pm
uusue2

Indeed :-)
3:32 pm

glad to hear things are going better, UU
3:34 pm
stidmama

LBD -- elder stidkid has been disenrolled from the community college. grades too poor too continue. Thoughts on next steps other than -- aptitude testing, vocational guidance counselor and time "getting real" about what jobs pay and what it costs to live?
3:35 pm
stidmama

he has a nibble on a job today -- walked in to a store I was shopping at and asked if they are hiring -- filled out the app on the spot!
3:36 pm
lbdawger

not really, stid. a reality check sounds like it is in order. He may need to do the research as well as talk to people who do the things he'd like to do. make up a list of things he needs to find out. like minimal starting pay and education.
3:36 pm
stidmama

thanks. I am on the right track, then. *sigh* at least he got his high school diploma!

stid, he might need to make his own way for a bit (working, etc) - give him some responsibility - then when he is ready he can go back to school if that's what's right for him

see ya
3:40 pm
stidmama

thanks, sue -- I believe that is where he is headed. WE cannot afford to pay for college when he is clearly not engaged and willing to put the work in -- he knows this, and doesn't have the funds to pursue an education. I told him we won't even sign off on student loans for a year!
3:40 pm
stidmama

bye LBD and shoo!
3:41 pm
stidmama

actually, there are mitigating factors, he thinks he is working hard, and he spends hours with books in front of him, but I don't think he is studying effectively -- and until he has an actual purpose and goal in mind he won't be motivated to use the supports that are available
3:41 pm
uusue2

I think my son is finally starting to turn around - he just missed being on probation this spring but (at least according to him) is doing very well this summer. Having gf out of his life should help (a lot). But it is all very hard - he was complaining about being treated like a child, which he is not, but under the current circumstances it is hard for me not to be really overprotective
3:42 pm
uusue2

well, if he can't even stay at the community college I'm not sure what other educational paths are open to him; once he decides what he really wants to do he might benefit from some counseling and tutoring at whatever college he winds up at
3:43 pm
stidmama

yes, fewer distractions should help -- would help the younger stidkid, but his gf is such a nice young lady. Next year, however, he is on notice to improve his grades "or else"
3:44 pm
stidmama

I am trying to steer him toward a vocational path at the moment - I think he needs more hands-on, more one-on-one guidance and more clear "endpoints" for tasks.
3:44 pm
jmcnrick

my boy took a gap year--best choice we ever made
3:45 pm
uusue2

could very well be the right thing for him, stid - book learning isn't for everyone
3:45 pm
jmcnrick

of course it took him 8 years to get through college counting the gap year
3:45 pm
jmcnrick

but the last 2 years at GW he was making GOOD grades after a couple of lack-luster years in HS
3:45 pm
stidmama

hey jmc!
3:45 pm
jmcnrick

hi
3:45 pm
stidmama

yes, "gap year" is how he is thinking of it right now, and I think it's a great way to look at it.
3:45 pm
uusue2

hi, jmc!
3:46 pm
jmcnrick

<===big fan of gap years especially for boys
3:46 pm
stidmama

I should have had a gap year. Of course, if I had, I wouldn't have met Tom and we wouldn't have the boys, or the pretty new roof on the house! :-D
3:47 pm
jmcnrick

i would have done better with a gap year too--i looked around when i was a senior in college with so-so grades and went: I would like to go to college
3:47 pm
jmcnrick

too late for me!
3:47 pm

no, it's my office connection, they must be having issues

oh, well it's not my office -- maybe the teen in the comfier chair??? LOL tomorrow I will get a new cushion for that chair... and maybe a matching chair to go with it!
3:57 pm

SO looking forward to getting my house in order over the next few weeks! (really hoping the sun comes out and makes it easier)

4:20 pm
MollyL

Sue, just my opinion, but your son is not being treated like a child. He's being treated like a young adult who made some very bad choices. And until he moves out and lives on his own, he will have consequences to deal with.
4:24 pm
uusue2

Hi, Molly! I am trying to walk the line between being appropriate given the situation, not kicking him when he is down, still giving him room to grow, and being reasonable about it all - I think we came to some important understandings today. He is much more aware of how his actions affect the rest of us - he is not the only one suffering here.
4:27 pm
uusue2

and just got my first 7-letter word, so now nbs and nbt
4:27 pm
MollyL

That sounds like a very good outcome from all this Sue. Especially the part about him understanding that his actions affect the whole family.
4:28 pm
uusue2

yes, he was quite unaware just how distraught I am
4:32 pm
rururocks

yep..nothing like a stalker girlfriend to make dinner a little uptight
4:33 pm
MollyL

This is the same thing Carlee said about her son, after recent events. Sons need to understand that their Mothers are wrecked when they indulge in behavior that hurts Mom's heart. Maybe it takes things like this, I don't know.
4:33 pm
uusue2

no kidding, ruru! She keeps opening new facebook accounts and messaging him from them - he's just going to completely deactivate his facebook account so she can't keep it up
4:34 pm
MollyL

Oh, bless that poor girl. She really is a mess.
4:34 pm
uusue2

she needs help, molly; I hope she gets it.
4:34 pm
jmcnrick

I trust he prints everything out before he deactivates
4:35 pm
uusue2

he's saving it all, jmc, and is deactivating on the advice of his lawyer
4:35 pm
uusue2

we haven't heard about the order of protection yet...
4:35 pm
jmcnrick

:-) i like his lawyer
4:35 pm
rururocks

*spoken like an attorney*
4:36 pm
uusue2

I like his lawyer too; I felt much better after we had talked to him
4:36 pm
jmcnrick

watch it ru you are already on record saying i was not a dick
4:36 pm
jmcnrick

*thumbs through the transcript*
4:36 pm
rururocks

I beg your pardon?
4:36 pm
MollyL

Oh good idea JMC. Printing it all out before deactivating will provide more proof that this girl is the root of the problem.
4:37 pm
uusue2

meanwhile I should really be reading a PhD dissertation in mathematics for a defense on Tuesday (I am the dean's designee, which is someone from outside the department that says the defense was rigorous and fair) but this is way outside my area of expertise and is very heavy going
4:38 pm
lynxxx

can someone pls explain what Sue just said...Morning all
4:38 pm
rururocks

wow.. uu.. i'm just trynig to finish this grid.. whoa
4:39 pm
uusue2

lol, lynxxx! I said that I am reading a PhD dissertation that I can't understand :-)
4:41 pm
MollyL

*No clue Lynxx*
4:42 pm
lynxxx

knowing nothing about PhD - why is there a 'defense'?
4:42 pm
uusue2

perhaps I can be a little more clear :-)
4:42 pm
MollyL

*Also no clue as to why JMC is not a dick*
4:43 pm
uusue2

every graduate student who is earning a PhD writes a dissertation, which they have to defend to a committee of faculty.
4:43 pm
lynxxx

oh no Molly - she is most definitely NOT a dick
4:43 pm
uusue2

The faculty come from the student's academic department and are familiar with the subject.
4:44 pm
uusue2

However, we also have what is called a dean's designee, which is a faculty member from outside the department chosen by the graduate dean.
4:44 pm
lynxxx

so - every dissertation is 'challenged' by peers? ?
4:44 pm
MollyL

I know that Lynxx, wondering about the Ru comment. As I said, I am lost. Will just munch popcorn and watch the show.
4:45 pm
uusue2

The dean's designee attends the defense and reports back to the graduate dean, and is supposed to ensure that the questioning of the student was rigorous (so the dissertation represents significant new knowledge) and fair (so the demands on the student are not excessive)
4:45 pm
MollyL

*Still munching popcorn* I saw this kind of thing on "Bones" when Zach went for his PHD and Bones defended him. Who says you don't learn anything from TV?
4:45 pm
rururocks

I think JMC took a comment meant for another joke.
4:45 pm
jmcnrick

sorry a week or so ago in a discussion with Mr P about lawyers are all dicks ruru said more or less "except jmcnrick"
4:46 pm
lynxxx

I am guessing it is like a verbal presentation of the written thesis?
4:46 pm
rururocks

I don't know.
4:46 pm
uusue2

Usually the defense consists of the student making a formal presentation about his or her work, then answering questions from the audience.
4:46 pm
rururocks

well.. then I said you aren't a dick
4:47 pm
rururocks

or if you are you are a nice dick
4:47 pm
jmcnrick

that's what i said!
4:47 pm
jmcnrick

haha
4:47 pm
rururocks

a friendly dick?
4:47 pm
jmcnrick

*checks pants* nope not a dick
4:47 pm
uusue2

The defense is open to the public, but after the public portion the committee (usually 3-5 faculty) meet privately with the student, during which time the committee typically asks more difficult and pointed questions, to test the limits of the student's knowledge.
4:47 pm
lynxxx

careful Ru
4:48 pm
jmcnrick

:-D
4:48 pm
rururocks

we are speaking of Richards Lynnx
4:48 pm
uusue2

Then the student leaves and the committee discusses the student's performance, both in the presentation and in the question and answer period, and decides whether the student is worthy of receiving the PhD degree or not.
4:48 pm
lynxxx

TY Sue - didn't realise any of that
4:49 pm
MollyL

Hear ye, hear ye...we are all in agreement. JMC is NOT a dick. *Bangs gavel*
4:49 pm
jmcnrick

haha
4:50 pm
rururocks

I make a motion to move RIchard from the chat
4:50 pm
lynxxx

so, are you going to go back to being a practising dick jmc?
4:50 pm
uusue2

My own dissertation defense lasted almost 3 hours, only about 20 minutes of which was my own presentation - the rest was me answering more and more complicated questions from the committee. I was totally drained by the end of it!
4:50 pm
lynxxx

oops - practicing
4:50 pm
uusue2

and yw, lynxx :-)
4:50 pm
MollyL

I can't even touch why students smart enough to earn a PHD have to go through such a horrid procedure. It sounds like the Spanish inquisition.
4:50 pm
jmcnrick

i am lynxxx since no other options have opened up
4:51 pm
jmcnrick

sounds like oral argument in an appeal except they have time limits
4:51 pm
lynxxx

I am sure you will have many grateful clients - I think you would be a great compassionate lawyer
4:51 pm
rururocks

watch it JMC
4:51 pm
uusue2

anyway, I have to read this dissertation but I am not on the committee, just an observer, and it is way beyond me!
4:52 pm
jmcnrick

i am more a lazy lawyer
4:52 pm
uusue2

and it is, Molly, except without the thumbscrews
4:52 pm
MollyL

JMC, have you seen "Harry's Law" yet? I think there is a future for you in practicing law whatever way you want.
4:52 pm
jmcnrick

i hate billing
4:52 pm
jmcnrick

no i have not molly it is on my list of things to do
4:53 pm
jmcnrick

no billing=broke lawyer
4:53 pm
MollyL

Okay, JMC, just remember. I have great billing and office skills and I know tons about shoes (that's part of the story line) : )
4:54 pm
uusue2

the lawyer I had for my second divorce was very disorganized about billing. I liked her a lot :-)
4:54 pm
jmcnrick

yeah everyone likes a lawyer who doesn't bill! lol
4:55 pm
jmcnrick

*looks at tevas* i am not sure shoe experience will be necessary
4:55 pm
rururocks

second divorce?
4:55 pm
uusue2

<--- is very jealous of jmc's tevas
4:55 pm
MollyL

I think every person who is a genius at what they do, (law, physics, medicine and the like) needs a sidekick who is good at the practical things. It's a winning combination.
4:55 pm
uusue2

of three, ruru - I am better at some things than others
4:55 pm
lynxxx

she's been around our Sue!
4:56 pm
jmcnrick

she has only had 3 divorces so far but we are keeping our fingers crossed
4:56 pm
rururocks

jeez.. you sound like elizabeth taylor
4:56 pm
jmcnrick

so when is the 10 year anniversary of the last divorce
4:56 pm
jmcnrick

*pulls out google calendar* ;-)
4:57 pm
MollyL

In the story of Harry's Law, Harriet moves into an office space that was once a designer shoe store. Her secretary tries to make the best of both worlds. That is what I meant.
4:57 pm
uusue2

not soon enough, jmc - it was final in January 2009
4:57 pm
uusue2

(I think)
4:57 pm
jmcnrick

okay in 2019 we will celebrate your lack of a 4th divorce!
4:57 pm
uusue2

sounds good to me :-)
4:57 pm
jmcnrick

that did seem to be your average
4:57 pm
MollyL

Not Tevas. I have two pair, I know of shoes. Casual and very fancy.
4:58 pm
uusue2

and in 2013 we can celebrate the end of my alimony payments :-P
4:58 pm
jmcnrick

i like my tevas they are very comfy and durable
4:58 pm
jmcnrick

*marks calendar*
4:59 pm
MollyL

Alimony payments????
4:59 pm
uusue2

I kid you not, Molly.
4:59 pm
uusue2

(I am paying, not receiving)
5:00 pm
MollyL

Payments indicated paying. I can't believe you are having to pay alimony. Dear God.
5:01 pm
jmcnrick

what a sexist comment molly! lol
5:01 pm
uusue2

Paid alimony to my second husband too but only for 6 months. This is not a good trend :-)
5:02 pm
jmcnrick

you need to marry richer husbands
5:02 pm
uusue2

I sure do!!
5:02 pm
rururocks

*signs up to be uu's 4th husband for the alimony*
5:02 pm
jmcnrick

or have a prenupt like my hubby and i did
5:02 pm
lynxxx

isn't it called pre- nup agreements? perhaps you can 'chat' to jmc about them
5:02 pm
jmcnrick

ru you would have to get rid of your wife first
5:03 pm
rururocks

well... uu could pay her alimony too
5:04 pm
jmcnrick

lol i don't think it works that way ru--but california is odd
5:04 pm
rururocks

well that joke went over like a lead balloon to UU
5:04 pm
uusue2

too late, ruru, I already have one lined up :-)
5:05 pm
uusue2

(sorry, was trying to explain bureaucratic nonsense to the secretary)
5:05 pm
rururocks

oh .. I hope he's not a stalker
5:05 pm
jmcnrick

blech i am finished reading foundation guidelines
5:05 pm
lynxxx

don't marry again Sue - It's going to keep you poor!!
5:05 pm
jmcnrick

he doesn't have to stalk if she marries him
5:05 pm
rururocks

yes.. just live in sin
5:05 pm
uusue2

well, we've been living together for 3 years now so I think I may have gotten in right this time
5:06 pm
jmcnrick

you could just live in sin--but get a co-habitation agreement then
5:06 pm
hurshy

I am wandering off... something about only 2 hours of sleep since 1:30 this morning. Nef, do you ever have trouble staying asleep? I am not used to waking in the middle of the night and then being roused by every little thing. *sigh* Can't drink milk, which was the remedy for everything when I was a kid. And the sleeping pills I used stopped working a couple years ago.
